These days, farmers' markets offer more than just nature's finest and freshest produce. These ten markets have devoted local fans—from near and far—making them a destination in their own right.

Baltimore, Maryland

Baltimore, Maryland

This producers-only market is celebrating its 36th anniversary this year. A bazaar-like component—with beauty products, arts and crafts, and handmade furnishings—was added in 2009 and has helped to draw more than 8,000 visitors on especially nice Sundays. Visit the gourmet pickle stand In A Pickle, which has an ardent fan base who loves its nine varieties, or wash down a snack down with classic glass-bottled milk from South Mountain Creamery.

Brattleboro, Vermont

Brattleboro, Vermont

When it started in 2006, the Brattleboro Winter Farmers' Market gave farmers a place to sell their still-plentiful produce when traditional markets had closed for the winter. In addition to making fresh, local food affordable to those in the community (they accept SNAP, formerly known as food stamps), the Saturday market has also become a destination for foodies from Massachusetts who love its proximity to I-91.
